again, i wrote on the image of denton with james with the american craft precision pens. when i first started doing this, it scared the hell out of me. i am not a huge fan of my own handwriting but when i started to really think about it, i feel it's important for the boys to see my handwriting when they are older, or when i am gone. my mom passed almost 4 years ago now, and the things i cherish most have her handwriting on it. i used more small journaling cards this week and didn't do a weekly summary. i liked the feel of this as well. the "raindrop" card and "start here" came from the studio calicoproject life kits. the "love" card is from a series that i picked up at michael's, from the echo park paper co. really like them.

denton made us raised garden beds this year. we made 3, they are amazing, of course he ran irrigation right to each box and they have really taken off, but you will see proof of that in the later weeks.

the 16 week title card was created using the card from becky higgins' project life seafoam set. i added some washi tape and the "happiness" is a tag from the paper source, the 16 is also cut out of a paper source calendar from last year. i am not sure where i go the little hedgehog heart. the "you are so very loved," is from the studio calico kit. the little paint brush sticky is from smash that i picked up at michael's.
